I have my Storm connected via bluetooth to a Parrot CK3000 Evolution and I must say that I am really pleased with it.

I also have the Vodafone Find & Go software on the phone which is first class but it is difficult to hear the voice commands when the radio is at normal volume or when the roof is down.

Is there any way of routing the voice commands via bluetooth to the car speakers? Somehow I doubt it but it is worth asking...... :dk:
 
I'd be tempted to say "no way" but better to just say "I cannot see any way to do it". Perhaps some expensive additional HW but then the OEM navi would be cheaper and it is already doing what you are after (the OEM approach is expensive but the integration gives some advantages that after market cannot at any cost).
 
I've got the Vodafone Sat nav on my Blackberry Bold & if yours is anything similar you should have an option within the sat nav software to amend the turn instruction volume between low, medium & high.

Find and go software is excellent.. I would have thought you would have problems no matter what solution u use with your roof down... other than using a bluetooth headset... :dk:

If your phone is A2DP compatible....Bluetooth profile - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia then it can if you have the right car kit that supports it.

There are various ones out there however I like the parrot products and use the parrot MK6000. Its very good. :)

Whoops, forgot I started this thread.:doh::o

So, it appears that it's not possible unless I spend loads of cash and that's pretty pointless. :(

I suppose I could use the earphone socket from the Blackberry but that would be a PITA, or rather PITE!
